Hi, Jeremy,
Have you tried PGadminIII? It's much easier to use.
To input a script, you can use psql
psql -h HOSTNAME -d DANAME -f FILENAME -U USERNAME

Hi Marco,
The problem I described in the first mail is that
because of some unknown reasons, if you save the
server.key file with a passphrase, you will be
prompted to enter the passphrase every time you start
the server AND a client make a connection, which
actually forbids us to use a passphrase

Hi Magnus,
You are right. My description is based on windows 2000
which is the weakest one.
Have the recovery key only available off-line is a
good practice. And if you don't want recovery agent,
backup the user's private key is also appropriate. It
can be done without effort. You don't need an arm
I don't know, I just tested it on win32.

Hi,
Actually, if you've multiple installations of
postgreSQLs in different locations, you can start them
simultaneously. And for different clients to connect
to different server instances, you should change the
default port setting.
